The Ben and Jerry's in the Park Plaza is right near my office. My cow-orkers and I have been known to stage mid-afternoon "getting in touch with our inner cow" runs. (Moo. Elevators. 3:00. was all we needed to say....)

There's an Emack & Bolio's that opened up right next door to my gym in Porter Square. (Not fair, I tell you, not fair at all.)

I used to go to White Farms a lot when I was a kid. It has great French vanilla.

Mad Maggies is, of course, amazing.

I wish we could duplicate the macadamia ice cream that you got in Tampa though. That was a buttery, creamy bowl of divine loveliness.

Can't we?

Experimentation is required, I think. :)

Definitely. Let's do it.
